CR owners Upgraded thickness OEM Wheel Group Buy interest
 

So we've installed these wheels in a couple of local CR owner's rides and they suggested we make a post here to see if there's any interest for these top quality OEM factory spec steering wheels with upgraded thickness/materials. Your existing airbag, cruise control, etc will all transfer over to the new wheel.

We know every owner has specific tastes and since this is not like buying a light bulb. Each steering wheel is usually built specifically to an owner's personal tastes but if we can get at least 5 people in on the SAME design it would simplify things and that means some savings in your pocketbook.

Thinking right now to do this as an open group buy meaning it will allow each user to pick his specific colors up to a point. Anything too crazy may need special order but we have the most popular red accents and yellow accents (for CR or Rio/Spa owners).

Our question is do you guys prefer round wheels or VGS style flat bottom wheels? The materials of choice is either leather or perforated leather or suede. Carbon Fiber is an option too if you guys prefer.


UPDATE: Pricing

Since each of these wheels have quite a few options we will give ballpark starting costs for each type of wheel:

- Round wheel, thicker grip, suede materials start at $549

- VGS style flat bottom wheel, thicker grip, suede materials start at $849+



The most popular wheels are the ones listed below but for owners of the ABP color, we can also do a blue stripe or blue stitching if you want it to complement the exterior :)

This is super cool... wish I had the $1200 to spare right now but I don't :( Super jealous for anyone who is able to take part :thumbup:

Great work!

Super nice quality on these wheels.

^Thanks fellas, each of the wheels are at a different price point to fit any s2000 owner's budget.


The colors can be customized so don't be set on yellow or red.

PM's replied!

We will give an additional $50 rebate for any CR owners who send us high resolution pictures of our wheel installed in their car...

Some more ideas of different color combos we can do:

Just sold this one to a CR owner, hopefully he will post up a photo after it's installed:

Is that a flat bottom one?

wow, that is nice.

Would this fit any AP2 as well? I'm sure there would be some interest with non CR members.
